Hello everyone,
I’ve lurked for some time now and I have a question that finally made me sign up in order to tap SF’s cumulative wisdom.
I have just bought my first Charcoal suit and it’s in Fresco, a fabric I’ve been interested in ever since I heard about it because I am always too warm.
I just received the suit from Fursac (French RTW) and trying it my wife told me the sleeves were shimmering.
Now I think what’s happening is that the sleeve lining is reflecting light through the weave.
Is that it ? Is it expected for a Fresco suit to shimmer ? Doesn’t lining sleeves defeat the purpose of an open weave ?
Anyhow, I think I’ll be returning it because the modesty of charcoal seems wasted with this light show.
The picture I joined shows the issue quite well I think, but let me tell you it’s even more pronounced irl.
All the best,
P.S : the shimmer is the same with a white or a blue shirt.
